Hivepass FAQ
-
Hivepass is an app specifically designed for people to sign up for memberships. It was developed in New Zealand and is widely used there. We are one of the first clubs to use it in B.C.
-
The main reason is we found Hivepass incredibly easy to use. Many members found our previous membership system cumbersome and challenging to use; we think we lost members because of it. Hivepass also makes it easier for members to access benefits, and provides more exposure for our sponsors. We feel this will help attract more members (because there’s more benefits) and more sponsors (because they have more opportunities to market to members). This will help boost revenue, which goes directly towards cycling initiatives in Revelstoke.
We also like that it has a news feed, which will help us let our members know about news and events.
-
Yes! You can always register online through the Hivepass website.
-
All member benefits are listed under the “Deals” tab when you open up Hivepass. That’s where you’ll see all our amazing sponsors, and find out what benefits are being offered. Simply present your digital membership card at participating sponsors to get your deal.
-
Annual memberships are now valid for one year from date of purchase. So, if you buy a membership on March 1, it will be active until Feb. 28 the following year. At this point, you’ll be asked to re-sign the waiver before you can renew your membership.
-
Yes! Family memberships are available for up to two adults and two children living in the same household. Additional family members are extra. Remember that when the primary family member agrees to the waiver, they are also agreeing on behalf of their children.
-
Weekly memberships are valid for one week from the date of purchase. It’s a great way for visitors to contribute to the trails while riding in town. Weekly members will get access to some, but not all, member benefits.
